<p>Aeromonas hydrophila causes disease in fish known as Motile Aeromonas Septicemia (MAS), also named as bacterial hemorrhagic septicemia. In this study, a pathogenic A. hydrophila strain was isolated from common carp Cyprinus carpio L., which were suffering from severe hemorrhagic septicemia. According to the phylogenetic analysis derived from 16S rDNA sequence, the isolate formed a single branch in the A. hydrophila group, named AhHN1. Artificial infection results indicated that AhHN1 showed strong pathogenicity in C. carpio and the LD50 was 1.38 × 106 CFU/fish, the clinical symptoms and pathological features of infected fish were similar to those observed in natural infections. The antimicrobial susceptibility testing revealed that AhHN1 resistance to more than 13 kinds of antimicrobial agents. However, the AhHN1 strain exhibited an extremely sensitivity to enrofloxacin, the in vitro activities of enrofloxacin were subsequently investigated and drug selection window (MSW) was 0.0016–0.0125 µg/ml. Pharmacokinetics data showed that plasma concentration of enrofloxacin was 0.0016, 0.0148 and 0.0282 µg/ml at 24 hr after orally administered with 2.5, 5 and 10 mg/kg enrofloxacin. Moreover, dosing once a day of 2.5, 5 and 10 mg/kg enrofloxacin, which the relative protection ratio (RPS) was amounted to 33.3, 66.7, and 83.3%, respectively. Therefore, 5 mg/kg enrofloxacin was considered to be the rational regimen for controlling AhHN1 infection in C. carpio in the countries where the use of enrofloxacin is permitted in aquaculture. The aim of this study was to establish a scientific medication regimen for the prevention and therapy of the mutidrug-resistant A. hydrophila infection.</p>
